Collar

Mackerel collar is the cut behind the gills—fatty, gelatinous, and outstanding on the grill. Char the edges until crisp and eat around bones and cartilage. Oil content is high even for mackerel; sharp pickles and citrus cut the richness. Limited pieces per fish; save when breaking down whole mackerel. Season boldly.
